Please: Need L. pyriforme & perlatum specimens

[Ralph D. Arnold]

Please, I am seeking mature puffballs (with mature spores) of
the Pear-Shaped Puffball (Lycoperdon pyriforme) and
the Gemmed Puffball/ (Lycoperdon perlatum), for some experiments in
spore inoculations.  Please send me specimens especially large ones, plus 
type of habitat (what they were growing on, if possible).  In return, I 
will keep you personally informed of the progress of the experiments.
